Sorry I disagree. A 1 in 75 is not like no chance at all, it is still a 1 in 75
chance period, however slim those odds are. No chance at all is simply that,
No Chance At All and nowhere near a 1 in 75 chance

What I initially meant was, a 1 in 75 chance of hitting Mars is pretty good
odds and a slim chance of an impact, which would be fantastic to see.
Either way an impact or no impact I'll be keeping my ears open for any
news.
